As a @medillschool.bsky.social grad and 25-year former journalist, I’d suggest Northwestern grads immediately unsubscribe from all emails from the university and cancel all giving. They can pay their ransom from somebody else. As a Law Dork paid sub, I’d say this is a great place to redirect some $.
The legal, media, and academic institutions capitulating to an authoritarian ordering payments for favorable treatment are damning themselves to irrelevance. They are destroying their institutions. They will be — and should be — shunned for failing in their most basic purposes for existing.
BREAKING: Northwestern University has agreed to pay the U.S. Treasury $75 million, over the course of three years as part of an agreement with the federal government to restore funding and end investigations into the university

Reminds me very much of the ways that the civil rights laws of the Reconstruction era were dismantled by applying them to corporations or by using, for example, Chinese-Americans as a foil to establish Black Americans as the anti-citizen.
Everyone involved in turning dishonest antisemitism allegations into a cudgel to destroy institutions and civil rights law should be deeply ashamed of themselves. What a extraordinary perversion of the lessons of the past century
Statement from U.S. AG Pam Bondi:

They are banking on people who were slowly asking questions about their embedded inequality to be so distracted by getting money back they stop supporting the targeted
One other notable thing here: Northwestern said a few months ago it would fund own research through the end of the year, but remained unclear about what would happen at the start of 2026
Today is Nov. 28 and funding will be restored within 30 days…have to imagine the timing was intentional

This is not the first time our president has used these insulting and derogatory references and his choices of words have consequences.
I will be voting NO on redistricting, perhaps he can use the next 10 months to convince voters that his policies and behavior deserve a congressional majority

More than her fiancé, or fellow female journalists, the public will pay the price for these misdeeds. RFK Jr. will see to that.

Speaking as a journalist, it has long been clear — and more so all the time — that something is *rotting* in the world of New York and Washington political reporting. Actively, visibly suppurating. Oozing with maggots. Even as many of the people in that world have denied it.

When your biggest concern is who draws the largest crowd, quickly followed by who brings the most profit, you’re building a machine to mint dysfunctional, ruthless entitled stars.
Something that strikes me in reading about this AND reading about other major figures in the news is that we have designed a system in America where the absolutely worst people are handed the largest, most powerful megaphones. It can’t be accidental. We built it on purpose.
So Olivia Nuzzi is clearly a piece of shit who can never work in journalism again after this.
And, also, Ryan Lizza is clearly a piece of shit who should never work in journalism again after this either.
We're all agree on that, right?
